Women are in my view natural peacemakers. As givers and nurturers of life through their focus on human relationships and their engagement with the demanding work of raising children and protecting family life they develop a deep sense of empathy that cuts through to underlying human realities.

The baby boomers are getting older and will stay older for longer. And they will run right into the dementia firing range. How will a society cope? Especially a society that can't so readily rely on those stable family relationships that traditionally provided the backbone of care?

Cherish your human connections: your relationships with friends and family.

Cherish your human connections - your relationships with friends and family.

I have very little faith that I'll ever find someone. I've had some bad luck and I've made some bad choices - not in men but in how I've chosen to deal with relationships.

Family and friends and faith are the most important things in your life and you should be building friendships.

Trust is to human relationships what faith is to gospel living. It is the beginning place the foundation upon which more can be built. Where trust is love can flourish.

At the end of the day I have always seen the end of my relationships as a personal failure. There is nothing ever pretty in saying goodbye.

It's probably foolish to expect relationships to go on forever and to say that because something only lasts 10 years it's a failure.

I have a tendency to sabotage relationships I have a tendency to sabotage everything. Fear of success fear of failure fear of being afraid. Useless good-for-nothing thoughts.

My experience with both my parents is that grief has a lot of down sad things but I was also really emotionally raw in the first year after each of them passed. Flowers smelled more intensely my relationships were hotter and I was more willing to risk. I was going for it a lot more. I was 'unsober' and I wasn't playing by my rules.

When you're a soul singer I'm singing a lot of songs about love and relationships that I think a lot of girls really relate to. For whatever reason that seems to get 'em excited. The DJ everyone always says the DJ gets all the chicks but that's never been my experience.

It was a great experience for a kid because it was a bunch of kids playing on pirate ships and water slides so looking back on it it was the fondest experience of my childhood.

Yes all my songs come from personal experience and relationships.

I have relationships with people I'm working with based on our combined interest. It doesn't make the relationship any less sincere but it does give it a focus that may not last beyond the experience.

I think everyone's experience with a terminal disease is so deeply personal and unique to the person the context in which they're living and the relationships that they have.

I discovered early on that some performers live their life in order to act so all their relationships are simply an experience that they can feed back into their work. Which I find vampiric.

Our thoughts have an order not of themselves but because the mind generates the spatio-temporal relationships involved in every experience.

I maybe had a first love and had my heart broken but reflecting on it I don't think that was love. I think as I'm getting older and having more in-depth relationships maybe I'll experience it. At the moment I don't know exactly if I've been in love.

Factory farming is one of the biggest contributors to the most serious environmental problems. The meat industry causes more greenhouse gas emissions than all the cars trucks planes and ships in the world.

I had done quite a bit of research about math education when I spoke before Congress in 2000 about the importance of women in mathematics. The session of Congress was all about raising more scholarships for girls in college. I told them I felt that it's too late by college.

When violence becomes imbedded in a region then this affects everything. It affects your dreams your fantasies and relationships and your religion becomes violent too.

Design can have such a positive impact on the way people live and on their relationships and moods.

Cause at the end of the day honestly at the end of the day when you're in your death bed and that's it I think it's the relationships you've had and the people that you've touched and the people that have touched you that matter.
